The Fearsome Doctor Fang

In 1906 San Francisco, headstrong police officer Nayland Kelly uncovers a lead in his revenge-fueled hunt for the Fearsome Doctor Fang when he learns that the supervillain will try to pilfer an artifact: the puzzle box of Kublai Khan. After the opening night presentation of a Kublai Khan lecture series by researcher Alice Lecroix, Fang bursts onto the scene, swooping in to steal the box and then flying away. Nayland and Alice team up to follow him, ignoring that the presumed villain interrupts his getaway to save some children from the threat of a collapsing building (presumably resulting from the devastating 1906 earthquake predicted by Fang himself). Nayland and Alice eventually catch up to Fang, but then all three are beset by a different crew of masked brigands. Over the course of the clash, Nayland shockingly discovers that Fang is leveraging his keen intellect and amazing inventions to combat fiendishness. Can the trio work together and prevent a hideous weapon secreted by Kublai Khan from being unleashed? Collects single issues 1–6.
